I enjoyed my stay at S1! The only problem was staying on the 4th floor with no elevator because I had a 25 kg bag! But there is a luggage room in the main office where I was able to keep my things, and the receptionist helped me carry a couple things up. They also mentioned a nice place to eat very close to the hotel. There is also a very nice rooftop garden I suggest checking out during your stay.

My only advice to future travelers is that if you want to stay near the main tourism areas or meet other travelers, I suggest you find someplace more East (Sukhumvit area) or more West (Chinatown/Khao San Road). I was hoping to meet people in the dorm style rooms, but there was only one other girl in my room and she didn't speak English. The rail station is just a 10 minute walk to the hostel, but it stops running at midnight, so if you are out late you have to take a taxi back. If I could do it again I would stay someplace with more fellow backpackers more in the heart of the city. But if you want a quiet, relaxed atmosphere, S1 is great!
